The Zionist entity is sharing information gathered through espionage with the United States against the ISIL terrorist group in Iraq including satellite images detailing extremists’ positions and movements.

A diplomatic source told Reuters that Israeli spy satellites flying over Iraqi territory captured photos of militant positions in the country at frequencies and angles that were not available to US satellites.

Sharing those images with the US Department of Defense allowed US forces to “fill out its information and get better battle damage assessments” following strikes on Islamic State (IS) positions, the source said.

“But the Israeli-supplied intelligence would reach the US with the Hebrew and other markings scrubbed out to avoid angering the Arab and Turkish governments who are supporting the terrorist group,” the diplomat said.

It is also alleged that Tel Aviv offered Washington information from an international travel database leaking the names of suspected Western terrorists allegedly fighting for ISIL.

“There is significant concern about the idea that some of these individuals may try to travel back to the West, using the Western passports, and carry out acts of violence or engage in terrorism here,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said Monday.

The entity has not denied involvement in the military effort against ISIL, also known as ISIS or IS. "We don't comment on any assistance by us, or if there is such assistance, in the fight against ISIL," an Israeli military spokesman said.
